What to use against Sunlight? Sensitive to sunlight

Dear ${Cases.Contact Name},

Sensitive eyes are a common issue and we have just the solution for you.

If you have strong prescription power and are out in the sun for long durations, we recommend prescription sunglasses.

However, if you are not out in the sun for a long duration during the day and would just like a solution that helps for when you venture out into the brightness, then our photochromic lenses are the solution.

Our Photochromic lenses turn dark in the sun and then become clear again indoors. These lenses also come with anti-glare coating to minimize the effects of glare.

Visit your nearest Optica to get yourself a pair of Photochromic lenses: https://ug.optica.africa/pages/store-locator

Alternatively, you may shop online and select the lens type of Advanced (Photo Grey Anti-Glare) after you have selected a frame: https://ug.optica.africa/pages/schedule-an-eye-test

Please let us know if we can assist you further.
